The two-volume Oxford Handbook of Music Performance provides a
resource that musicians, scholars and educators will use as the
most important and authoritative overview of work within the areas
of music psychology and performance science. The 80 experts from 13
countries who prepared the 53 chapters in this handbook are leaders
in the fields of music psychology, performance science, musicology,
psychology, education and music education. Chapters in the Handbook
provide a broad coverage of the area with considerable expansion of
the topics that are normally covered in a resource of this type.
Designed around eight distinct sections - Development and Learning,
Proficiencies, Performance Practices, Psychology, Enhancements,
Health & Wellbeing, Science, and Innovations - the range and
scope of The Oxford Handbook of Music Performance is much wider
than other publications through the inclusion of chapters from
related disciplines such as performance science (e.g., optimizing
performance, mental techniques, talent development in non-music
areas), and education (e.g., human development, motivation,
learning and teaching styles) as well as the attention given to
emerging critical issues in the field (e.g., wellbeing, technology,
gender, diversity, inclusion, identity, resilience and buoyancy,
diseases, and physical and mental disabilities). Within each
chapter, authors have selected what they consider to be the most
important scientific and artistic material relevant to their topic.
They begin their chapters by surveying theoretical views on each
topic and then, in the final part of the chapter, highlight
practical implications of the literature that performers will be
able to apply within their daily musical lives.
